"Er, yes. But that was a long time ago."

"That was last month."

From something where Jawa wasn't leaving the doctoring to the doctors:


"Have you been off reading medical textbooks again?" Mike asked.

"They weren't technically books," Jawa said.

"What do you mean by that?" Mike asked.

"I found some PDFs on Alexander's phone-"

"That's the same thing!" Mike interrupted.

"Actually, this was vaguely illegal..."

Mike sighed. "You are such a nerd."

"I am just trying to prepare for every possibility," Jawa said.

"Yeah, but I think this is overkill," Mike said.


"I don't even know what her blood pressure is," Jawa said.

"Probably through the roof from having to deal with you and your let's go through every single thing that could go wrong here attitude," Mike said.


"Just be glad we're not in the middle ages, or we'd all be dead like ten times over by now," Jawa said.

"I'll be sure to keep that in mind," Mike said.

"I would be doing much better if you were back in MI6 custody in London," Catherine said.

"Half the work of solving a problem is identifying it," Erica said.

"Really?" Alexander asked.

"It seemed like something you might respond to."

"I guess it was. I just didn't expect to hear it from you."

"Well, Mom's not here right now," Erica said. "It just feels natural that I would have to step it up in the weird assurances department."

***

"We have to go!" Erica yelled.

"Why?" Mike asked. "Ashley's unconscious, and Joshua left. Plus, I have to go to the bathroom."

"Mike, Joshua didn't leave yet," Ben said.

"Oh. Well, I still have to pee."
